Just waiting for the black berries to ripen... How do your arms and legs look after wresting with all them berries ? Mine are shredded from picking a quart of black razzies. And I was being careful too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizz1219 Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 I bleed every time.. but I've been working my rows more and more every year... getting them organized so they are easier to control.... helps a lot but I have a ways to go... Getting there though.. thinking 2 more years and it will ROCK... but it's still pretty good now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabin Fever Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Checked my usual hot spots today. Got ~15 blackberries off of one bush, but that was the only one that I found that had any ripe yet. Most were still green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
